Will Norris 3ec5be3f51 all: remove AUTHORS file and references to it
This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.

A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---

The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.

The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".

This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.

Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:

> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.

It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.

In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.

Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.

The source file changes were purely mechanical with:

    git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

Tom Proctor 5be02ee6f8 cmd/k8s-operator/e2e,go.mod: remove client v2 dependency
It's not worth adding the v2 client just for these e2e tests. Remove
that dependency for now to keep a clear separation, but we should revive
the v2 client version if we ever decide to take that dependency for the
tailscale/tailscale repo as a whole.

cmd/k8s-operator/e2e: run self-contained e2e tests with devcontrol (#17415)
* cmd/k8s-operator/e2e: run self-contained e2e tests with devcontrol

Adds orchestration for more of the e2e testing setup requirements to
make it easier to run them in CI, but also run them locally in a way
that's consistent with CI. Requires running devcontrol, but otherwise
supports creating all the scaffolding required to exercise the operator
and proxies.

cmd/k8s-operator: simplify scope of e2e tests (#17076)
Removes ACL edits from e2e tests in favour of trying to simplify the
tests and separate the actual test logic from the environment setup
logic as much as possible. Also aims to fit in with the requirements
that will generally be filled anyway for most devs working on the
operator; in particular using tags that fit in with our documentation.

Percy Wegmann 4f0222388a cmd,tsnet,internal/client: create internal shim to deprecated control plane API
Even after we remove the deprecated API, we will want to maintain a minimal
API for internal use, in order to avoid importing the external
tailscale.com/client/tailscale/v2 package. This shim exposes only the necessary
parts of the deprecated API for internal use, which gains us the following:

1. It removes deprecation warnings for internal use of the API.
2. It gives us an inventory of which parts we will want to keep for internal use.

cmd/k8s-operator,k8s-operator: operator integration tests (#12792)
This is the start of an integration/e2e test suite for the tailscale operator.
It currently only tests two major features, ingress proxy and API server proxy,
but we intend to expand it to cover more features over time. It also only
supports manual runs for now. We intend to integrate it into CI checks in a
separate update when we have planned how to securely provide CI with the secrets
required for connecting to a test tailnet.
